[quote=Anonymous]I posted above about having a child overseas during high school. In hindsight — I would specifically ask the college counselors how many students each year go to the local universities in country, and do they have regular contacts with the admissions folks. (An international school will definitely have this in country) And then ask for which USA colleges do they have similar relationships. If they are vague and say many, several, etc - they are bs’ing and you will be on your own or get a private college counselor to help. Also get a list of which USA colleges visit the school regularly. Those colleges are essentially recruiting from your school - that makes up part of your short list. Lastly, if you end up in a country that does not do grade inflation, or does the opposite, grade deflation - Be prepared to advocate for your child every term - gpa still matters even when coming from overseas!
